submillisecond

A [lunatic] web framework for the Rust language.

Submillisecond is a backend web framework around the Rust language, WebAssembly's security and the lunatic scheduler.

This is an early stage project, probably has bugs and the API is still changing. It's also important to point out that many Rust crates don't compile to WebAssembly yet and can't be used with submillisecond.

Features

Code example

```rust use submillisecond::{router, Application};

fn index() -> &'static str { "Hello :)" }

fn main() -> std::io::Result<()> { Application::new(router! { GET "/" => index }) .serve("0.0.0.0:3000") } ```

Getting started with lunatic

To run the example you will first need to download the lunatic runtime by following the installation steps in this repository. The runtime is just a single executable and runs on Windows, macOS and Linux. If you have already Rust installed, you can get it with:

bash cargo install lunatic-runtime

Lunatic applications need to be compiled to WebAssembly before they can be executed by the runtime. Rust has great support for WebAssembly and you can build a lunatic compatible application just by passing the --target=wasm32-wasi flag to cargo, e.g:

```bash

Add the WebAssembly target

rustup target add wasm32-wasi

Build the app

cargo build --release --target=wasm32-wasi ```

This will generate a .wasm file in the target/wasm32-wasi/release/ folder inside your project. You can now run your application by passing the generated .wasm file to Lunatic, e.g:

lunatic target/wasm32-wasi/release/<name>.wasm

Better developer experience

To simplify developing, testing and running lunatic applications with cargo, you can add a .cargo/config.toml file to your project with the following content:

```toml [build] target = "wasm32-wasi"

[target.wasm32-wasi] runner = "lunatic" ```

Now you can just use the commands you are already familiar with, such as cargo run, cargo test and cargo is going to automatically build your project as a WebAssembly module and run it inside lunatic.

Getting started with submillisecond

Add it as a dependency

toml submillisecond = "0.3.0"

Handlers

Handlers are functions which return a response which implements IntoResponse.

They can have any number of arguments, where each argument is an [extractor].

rust fn index(body: Vec<u8>, cookies: Cookies) -> String { // ... }

Routers

Submillisecond provides a router! macro for defining routes in your app.

```rust

[derive(NamedParam)]

struct User { firstname: String, lastname: String, }

fn hi(user: User) -> String { format!("Hi {} {}!", user.firstname, user.lastname) }

fn main() -> std::io::Result<()> { Application::new(router! { GET "/hi/:firstname/:lastname" => hi POST "/updatedata" => updateage }) .serve("0.0.0.0:3000") } ```

The router macro supports:

Nested routes

Routes can be nested.

rust router! { "/foo" => { GET "/bar" => bar } }

Url parameters

Uri parameters can be captured with the [Path] extractor.

```rust router! { GET "/users/:first/:last/:age" => greet }

fn greet(Path((first, last, age)): Path<(String, String, u32)>) -> String { format!("Welcome {first} {last}. You are {age} years old.") } ```

You can use the [NamedParam] derive macro to define named parameters.

```rust router! { GET "/users/:first/:last/:age" => greet }

[derive(NamedParam)]

struct GreetInfo { first: String, last: String, age: u32, }

fn greet(GreetInfo { first, last, age }: GreetInfo) -> String { format!("Welcome {first} {last}. You are {age} years old.") } ```

Alternatively, you can access the params directly with the [Params] extractor.

Catch-all

The _ syntax can be used to catch-all routes.

rust router! { "/foo" => { GET "/bar" => bar _ => matches_foo_but_not_bar } _ => not_found }

Guards

Routes can be protected by guards.

```rust struct ContentLengthLimit(u64);

impl Guard for ContentLengthLimit { fn check(&self, req: &RequestContext) -> bool { // ... } }

router! { "/shortrequests" if ContentLengthGuard(128) => { POST "/super" if ContentLengthGuard(64) => supershort POST "/" => short } } ```

Guards can be chained with the && and || syntax.

Middleware

Middleware is any handler which calls next_handler on the request context. Like handlers, it can use extractors.

```rust fn logger(req: RequestContext) -> Response { println!("Before"); let result = req.next_handler(); println!("After"); result }

fn main() -> std::io::Result<()> { Application::new(router! { with logger;

    GET "/" => hi
})
.serve("0.0.0.0:3000")

} ```

Middleware can be chained together, and placed within sub-routes.

```rust router! { with [mid1, mid2];

"/foo" => {
    with [foo_mid1, foo_mid2];
}

} ```

They can also be specific to a single route.

rust router! { GET "/" with mid1 => home }

Testing

Lunatic provides a macro #[lunatic::test] to turn your tests into processes. Check out the tests folder for examples.
